Scientists have accidentally stumbled upon a potential new treatment for hereditary-patterned baldness, the most common cause of hair loss in both men and women worldwide.
I used to feel we waste a lot of effort on these vanity type research; baldness, erectile dysfunction, etc. But now that I’m older, and dealing with other mental health issues, I can appreciate the value that these medicines may have for a lot of men (and women) for their mental health wellness.
Ive had male pattern baldness since I was in my early twenties. I got ahead of it by shaving my head. It’s worked well for me as a good look. And I love not having to deal with the hassle of “bad hair days”. But, I’ll be honest, if I had an opportunity to grow my hair back, I probably would. It’s a confidence thing. Confidence can also help boost self-esteem and positive self-image. I’m sure the same thing can be said for ED. Men deserve some positive self-image. 💙
I don’t know how anyone can consider erectile dysfunction a vanity ailment. I hear extremo feminists talk about viagra as an evil medicine for rich white men to rape more with, and it’s incredibly offensive to me. It’s right up there with saying that abortion is for wanton sluts who want to fuck without consequences. Come on folks. It’s not that hard to just agree that proper sexual function is one aspect of health, and that everyone has a right to it.
To be fair, I was referring to an older way that I used to think. I’ve grown up a lot since then and made certain realizations that while these treatments are not medically necessary to one’s physical health, they are medically necessary for one’s mental health. So yes, you and I are in agreement.
I hear ya. But men get all the research anyway. Hey if this turns out to be a thing, great. I just have to think in the country with Hair Club For Men there’s been more than a little money thrown at pattern baldness so the comment that it was “under-researched” seemed pretty far-fetched.
I believe the commenter was being sarcastic, which is why “under-researched” was in quotes. They also followed it up with how they felt it was unlikely.
No the quotes were mine. The actual quote from the article was
If the deoxyribose gel also proves effective in humans, it could be used to treat alopecia or even stimulate hair, lash, and eyebrow regrowth following chemotherapy.
“This is a badly under-researched area, and hence new approaches are needed,” argue the authors.

For sure - that was clear. I was talking about others who still think this way. Cheers
